The 4 star Casa Hotel in Chesterfield has been shortlisted for Caterer.com’s Best Employers in Hospitality Awards 2012 England & Wales, and has achieved a ranking in the Top 50 Employers in Hospitality.

After beating off hundreds of applicants, Casa is up against four other hotels in its category to be named the Best Employers in Hospitality. The annual awards encourage employees to vote for their employer using the learnpurple employee engagement survey.

Ian Burke of Caterer.com said: “The best employers are those that truly value their employees and focus on developing all areas of their careers. The fact that these awards are judged by the employees alone gives an unbiased view of who the best employers in the industry are and we are proud to recognise and award them.”

Steve Perez, owner of Casa Hotel commented: “I am overwhelmed that we have been shortlisted for this award. The excellent reviews we get are because of the fantastic staff here at Casa and I am proud that they are pleased to work here. To have an official award to say we are great employers is an amazing achievement.”

The winners will be announced at a black tie awards ceremony at Lancaster London on 18th June 2012.
